A British super-hero
-
I thought the main goal of a super-hero was to enforce the law, not to violate it. After all, if a car is wheel-clamped, it deserves it, doesn't it?

Now don't let morals cloud your vision... ;P
Beware the chickens, for in their silence, they plot... Two fish are in a tank. One says to the other: "I'll man the guns, you drive!" Life is too short to be taken seriously. -- Oscar Wilde
Can the concept of heroism be disconnected from moral rules? :)

And he's not the only one. There's another guy in Tunbridge Wells (sorry, heard about both on the radio, so no links) who goes around stopping muggings. Apparently the offenders are so surprised to be tackled by a guy in a cape that they don't even defend themselves :laugh:.

:laugh: Actually, I was Captain Duron at the office at one point. I took an AMD Duron mouse bad, cut out two holes for the eyes, and put an elastic string on it. I wore it on my face as a mask, and thus Captain Duron was born. Unfortunately I junked the mask when we moved the office to another location. :( -- You still have your old friend Zoidberg.

Have no fear. Remember the Superman movie where he get it on with Lois and loses all his super powers (for something as silly as love!)? Well, he gets them back in the end, kicking villain butt. I too will think of something. :-D -- You still have your old friend Zoidberg. You all have Zoidberg!
